My Revo can be tricky, mainly on landing. Going out I bear down and stroke like a manic. Praying for good timing so I crest a wave and go airborn, rather than take the breaking crest in the chest or face. Also, once full of water, the Revo seems to take on a lot of it, be slow to drain, and a slug to get back up to a good paddling speed before the next wave hits.
Landing, with peddles and rudder up, it's been a challenge to keep the desired angle to surf in on a wave, even with a new larger surface area paddle. No keel to speak of. I rolled a few weeks ago on landing when the waves were really up. Don't have the confidence I did with other yaks.
But I still love that yak!
